To celebrate 2 consecutive successful closings, have decided to reward myself by embarking on a 3 stars culinary journey this week with different dining buddies.First one on the list: Robuchon for lunch.This time, have decided to go for an interior table (Le Jardin) as opposed to the bar table overlooking the open kitchen (L’Atelier). A slight price difference, but the dessert trolley would make it all worth it.Here’s what we had. Showstopping bread basket. Just as good as I remembered. Particul
First one on the list: Robuchon for lunch.
This time, have decided to go for an interior table (Le Jardin) as opposed to the bar table overlooking the open kitchen (L’Atelier). A slight price difference, but the dessert trolley would make it all worth it.
Here’s what we had.
Showstopping bread basket. Just as good as I remembered. Particularly loved the croissant and Comte roll.

-A’muse bouche-
Tomato Gazpacho, topped with delicate frozen cheese ice cream pearls; a delightful flavor combination.
-Appetisers-
Beetroot and Apple Duo with Avocado, served with a refreshing green mustard sorbet. The earthy sweetness of the beetroot and the tart crunch of the apple balanced perfectly with the cool, palate-cleansing sorbet.
Yellowtail Carpaccio, a signature dish also available in the London outlet. The silky-smooth fish was elevated by the citrus dressing and the subtle heat of the Espelette pepper, creating a harmonious and sophisticated flavor profile.
Tasmania Black Truffle on Roseval Potatoes (from Brittany, France) and Foie Gras, with Salad. The rich, nutty flavors of the truffle and foie gras were expertly complemented by the sweet, firm-fleshed potatoes.
-Soup-
Green Beans in a Light Spicy Broth with Egg and Crispy Garlic Flower. The beans, even when chopped up in small pieces were quite chewy, didn’t seem to have integrated fully into the light consommé. Others didn’t seem to mind tho.
-Mains-
Delicate Maine Lobster meat with Spaghetti in a creamy, umami-rich Emulsion.
Caramelized Iberico pork "pluma" on a bed of roasted eggplant and red bell peppers. Meat was not as tender as I would have liked- possibly overcooked; accompanying arlequins condiments (mushrooms, shallots etc with tomato sauce) were quite salty.
Slow Cooked French Pigeon with Foie Gras.
Dessert Trolley came finally with its tantalizing array of sweet treats. We were allowed 3 choices each: we shared amongst us the creme brûlée, chocolate tart, chocolate puff, Napoleon, mango roll cake and the passion fruit and mango pudding.

Threesome of petits fours: lemon tart, citrus macaroon and cranberry marshmallow with dark chocolate; ending the meal on a sugar high
In summary: dazzling gastronomic adventure from start to finish; striking balance of innovation with tradition heightened by impeccable service. Star of the show: breadbasket, fulfilled my carbs quota for the upcoming few months.
